At the start of the most dramatic section of the video, around the 2:27 mark, North Korean soldiers can be seen running from a building that faces the South Korean side of the compound. At around the 6-minute mark, South Korean soldiers can be seen crawling to rescue the defector. During the incident, U.S. forces say, a North Korean soldier crossed a military demarcation line — a potential violation of the uneasy armistice between the countries set after the Korean War. The incident is among many skirmishes over the years at the location, a famous spot among tourists and visiting dignitaries because of its close proximity to North Korean soldiers. American officials said that North Korean officials received a notice Wednesday about the alleged violations and that a meeting had been requested to discuss the issue.
